DiGeorge syndrome is not really a rare disease. A microdeletion of chromosome 22q11.2 is found in most patients. Sharing the same genetic cause, a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations such as conotruncal anomaly face syndrome, Cayler cardiofacial ...

A Practical Guide to Chromosome Microarray Interpretation for Paediatricians
ABSTRACT Introduction Chromosome microarray (CMA) is a test commonly ordered by general paediatricians. It has diagnostic yield between 10%–15% in individuals with neurodevelopmental delay, autism and/or multiple congenital abnormalities. CMA identifies copy number variants (CNV) including deletions and duplications, which may be pathogenic, variants ...

Cardiovascular Malformations in CHARGE Syndrome with DiGeorge Phenotype: Two Case Reports
Both CHARGE syndrome and DiGeorge anomaly are frequently accompanied by cardiovascular malformations. Some specific cardiovascular malformations such as interrupted aortic arch type B and truncus arteriosus are frequently associated with 22q11.2 deletion

Endothelial neuropilin disruption in mice causes DiGeorge syndrome-like malformations via mechanisms distinct to those caused by loss of Tbx1. [PDF]
The spectrum of human congenital malformations known as DiGeorge syndrome (DGS) is replicated in mice by mutation of Tbx1. Vegfa has been proposed as a modifier of DGS, based in part on the occurrence of comparable phenotypes in Tbx1 and Vegfa mutant ...

Essential embryology for the Canadian pathologists’ assistant
Abstract Pathologists' assistants (PAs) are pivotal in healthcare, conducting autopsies and examining tissues under a pathologist's guidance. Embryology knowledge is crucial for PAs to accurately assess anomalies and identify pathologies. Yet, it is often overlooked in academic PA training programs.

A defect in early myogenesis causes Otitis media in two mouse models of 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome [PDF]
Otitis media (OM), the inflammation of the middle ear, is the most common disease and cause for surgery in infants worldwide. Chronic Otitis media with effusion (OME) often leads to conductive hearing loss and is a common feature of a number of ...

ABSTRACT The ciliopathies are a group of genetic disorders caused by defective function of either the primary cilia (a large number) or the motile cilia (a much smaller number). These have been defined as diseases with mutations in genes encoding individual ciliary or cilia‐associated proteins.

"Mechanisms of transcriptional regulation by Tbx1" [PDF]
Deletion 22q11.2 syndrome (22q11DS) is the most common microdeletion syndrome in man, with an incidence of approximately 1:4000 live births (1); the major malformations include congenital heart defects such as truncus arteriosus (TA) and interrupted ...

Concurrent Scoliosis and Dentofacial Anomaly: A Case Report
The relationship between scoliosis, dentofacial anomaly, and malocclusion is poorly understood. We report a novel and complex pediatric case of concurrent juvenile scoliosis, dentofacial anomaly, and malocclusion, successfully treated and managed by an ...
